Freeze also didn’t just squeak out a win against Arkansas by some random lucky play….he dominated them on both lines. And that is supposedly Arkansas’s strength….their lines.
I watched that game and it wasn’t really as close as the end score makes it look.

Since Kiffin’s days as Alabama’s OC he’s running the ball ~45 times a game and throwing the ball ~30 times a game and has been very consistent year over year with only one season where he averaged less that 40 rush attempts per game (39 att/game). Id say he is very run focused.

He ran a lot of RPO at Bama but then again he had Jalen Hurts and Blake Sims as his QBs too.

Its another way for the Kiffin fans to dig for something to avoid the fact he loses 80% of the games (balanced or adapting or how he is) that matter. He's not going to suddenly do better against UGA than he does against Vandy on a yearly basis. So that's just another loss. His ceiling with our schedule is 2 losses a year. 3 most years. He might get us into a good enough bowl game against someone else to beat him. Nothing on his resume says otherwise. The fact his best wins are against 4 loss teams says it all.

The fact that you ignore his roster and the fact that this was supposed to be a rebuilding year says it all.

Well then I guess we should just give him an entire career pass because it's all just rebuilding years. Most quality coaches aren't having year one problems in their 3rd year but we'll give him a pass.

It basically still is. He skimmed by this years sorry team and now we are supposed to deem him a great coach and ignore the fact he still can't beat anyone good. He barely beat this Auburn team and lost his previous 2 to us. Even his best team last year lost to Harsin.

Like I said those who are just happy with lowering their expectations to beating the mid to bottom of the SEC will be happy with him. Those who want to win the big games and sec won't. Hes not going to suddenly be able to beat teams that are blowing him out by giving him alittle more talent at Auburn.

You can ignore those facts and downvote all you want but it doesn't change anything. He's hasn't lasted anywhere because he's not as good as people hype him up to be and it takes them hiring him to realize it. Minus FAU.

Mark Fickell off the list. Cincinnati Oline looks worse than Auburn’s.

Someone pointed out that Calzada was very excited in the Tank FOF video.


I imagine he wants to be coached by either of Kiffin or Freeze.

If it weren’t for that fat frick Cody and their kicker, he would have beat Alabama his first year at UT, no? I didn’t look it up but I think I remember that being his team. Lane is a top 3 coach for us no matter how you look at it. He would bring in talent, has shown he can actually develop a qb even when they’re not great. He adapts to his playmakers. If he can get a decent DC, he would be a homerun hire for us and there is no one that would say he isn’t.

Where do I sign? Like seriously... You think there's a coach out there that can do better than this that will come to AU?

Nobody is beating UGA consistently they just had like 25 5 stars on campus the other week. At least Kiffin's offenses will keep us in those games and give us a chance.

Yep, Kiffin marched into TTown and took that game down to the last seconds, had Cody not blocked the FG Kiffin would have won, and came closer than anyone to beating Bama that year. Held Bama to just the 4 field goals and the UT kicker missed 3 of his.

It was the closest UT came to beating them in the past 15 years until this year.

If we hire Kiffin and give him the budget to get a good DC, that’s dangerous. Just a matter if we can afford both esp if Kiffin is demanding “nine figures”

Like I said let's hire us up a HC that loses the big games. Almost is still a loss. I guess we can count all those almost losses as losses this year.

Nothing stays the same forever. Get a competent coach to come in and start chipping away at Georgia. Start with winning a few local recruiting battles and then start making life harder on them. Right now we’re no threat at all. Start small and build up.

You have made your point quite clear, has some merit,but I think you are also missing on some of the points that have been countered are also valid.

I’m not sure why the need to keep the argument going it is just circling back over and over. Becoming quite a bore really.
